Personal responsibility that is something that I feel strongly about. Maybe not at 6 am. My workout buddy was having some tummy trouble this morning and shot me a text that she was not going to be able to go this morning. Poor girl she has been fighting some bug for a while now.
That said, I had already planed to go on my own if she was sick. WELL, that is a plan that looks better at night that in the cool of the morning! I was so comfy all curled up in the quilt. That part of my brain that controls so much of my life - rationally whispered, "you're tired...just sleep in". That is the same voice that tells me things like "it's only one cookie, ice cream is your friend and the ever popular - make a plan today and you can start tomorrow.
Well the time came to get up and get moving... by moving I mean get coffee and get on the computer. And she wonders why she has gained 80 some pounds :/ . Then there was this small voice speaking of "Personal Responsibility".
Then I found the workout "buddy" that I need... she is the Chubby, middle aged woman in the mirror. She needs me, and wants to get her sweat on with me, if I go with her I can listen to my music and not have to make conversation, or feel bad that she can't go. Don't get me wrong I truly LOVE my workout buddies, they motivate me, make me laugh and make the tough things possible. However, this one in the mirror seems to really need ME!!!
So, I am packing my workout clothes to take to work, I will drink my protein drink about 30 minutes before I get off, and go straight to the gym. Then when I get home I can get right to house work... I will be too sweaty to lay on the couch. I know, I know another plan!!! Hope springs eternal... this ONE will work!
Chubby Chick - will sweat into the afternoon!
